Pros

ConsWhen I first got it, a few keys didn't work but they started working a few days later, and it's been perfect for months now.

SummaryDecent keyboard, pretty good for $20. REbate worked fine for me. The quality seems ok, and is comparable to other entry level gaming keyboards. I don't really get the harshness of some people's reviews for this keyboard, it's not like its a high end $130 keyboard, and it feels no cheaper in quality than most other keyboards I have used. (mostly logitech and Microsoft keyboards)

Pros

Looks nice.

ConsPoor quality build, lag on key strokes, rebates not honored.

SummaryPoor quality keyboard, and Azio do not honor their mail-in rebates. Buyer beware. You're better off just going for a cheap $10 or $20 keyboard from someone who will at least charge you an honest $20 upfront.

Pros

Solid construction for the price, backlit keys

Conskeys can feel a little sticky, backlit is a little dim even at it's highest setting

SummaryPurchased this keyboard for an elderly person who was having a hard time with seeing their original keyboard. It has a lot of options for the price but the main reason that was that it had three different light levels of backlight for the keys. One would think that three levels would mean low , medium and high backlight not dim , dimmer and dimmest. The keys were not as responsive as I would have hoped but the main disappointment was the backlighting for the person who was needing to see the keyboard properly.

Pros

ConsKeys stick, misses keys when typing, additional icon gaming keys that come with it stick even more than the originals. Requires a driver and tray icon with a reboot required.

SummaryIt's a cheap backlit keyboard, but I had no idea it would be THIS cheap.

First, It comes with extra WASD Q E and R keys for gaming. R is for Reload and thus has little bullets on it. Unfortunately after pulling out the original keys and putting these in, they stuck and were completely unusable. I had to remove them and go with the originals again.

Second, I'm a pretty fast typist at about 80 WPM. This keyboard frequently misses keys, or types doubles, which really slows me down. I was going to leave all the missed keys in this review, but it would have been too difficult to read.

Third, it needs a driver that first requires a reboot to work, has two executable files running in memory with a tray icon. This is for macros, but I'm pretty sure a good gaming keyboard can save and execute its own macros without a driver, only needing apps for programming them. I find this to be lazy, and I really don't need more processes to add to the 70+ I have running.

Fourth, It has this automatic shift key / caps prevention feature that can NOT be turned off. If you're typing quickly and write HEllo by accident, it will correct it to Hello. However, if you're trying to type AMD, it will automatically write AmD. As an example, I'm holding shift down and typing HaHaHaHaHaHa and you can see the result. Very annoying when using acronyms or trying to laugh at someone and you can't turn this feature off.

Finally, I find it hard to find my place when not looking. The bumps on F and J are difficult to find, causing me to look at my keyboard while gaming.. which usually means death.

The macros down the left side can be easily mistaken for the farthest edge of your keyboard, throwing you off by a few rows. It's also easy to mistake M1 for ESC, thus my first macro for M1 was ESC.

My $10 HP keyboard I nabbed somewhere 3 years ago will probably go back in place of this one while this gaming one will be used for the server that never gets touched.

SummaryI have an old utilities knive blade holder that I'm using to prop on angle.Other then that I'm very happy with this key board.After 2 months the board still works fine.At dusk lighting the keys are a little harder to read.You do have the option of ajusting the back light of the keys, but would have been better to have a glow to the keys. For the price it was a steal. I have recieved my $10.00 rebate cheque which was a nice surprize because I had forgotten all about the $10.00 rebate.

SummaryI've requested an RMA for this item, as it is malfunctioning out of the box. Whenever I'm typing, every few seconds something strange would happen: the Mode button would light up, and the last key I pressed would continue to output to the screen for several seconds, as if I've pressed it down for several seconds. This obviously makes typing very impractical, especially if the key is the space bar. It's quite sad, because the Logitech OEM keyboard that I intended to replace has better feedback, has never had any problems with the keys, is more comfortable to use, and has a much smaller profile. Guess I'll be using that instead from now on.

Pros

Price, backlit key, simple

Constoo simple, cheap construction

SummaryOverall I'm satisfied with this keyboard, probable because the price was so low. Works well and the backlit key are a nice feature. My only complaint is the construction is a little cheap, cheap shinny plastic. It looks like a $30 board and I got it for $15 so still a good buy.

Pros

SummaryI got this on sale which is when I would only get this keyboard. If you're looking for a quick replacement keyboard for gaming this is for you. Upgrade to a mechanical keyboard if you're a serious gamer or typist.
